With just a few days to go, here's another reminder about
what you can do to prepare for the meeting...
IF YOU WANT TO MAKE YOUR OWN SSL CERTS FOR WEB/EMAIL
- sign up for a CAcert account
- go to the web site and print out several CAP forms
blanks -> http://www.cacert.org/cap.php
pre-filled-in -> select "US - WoT Form" on the web
- you'll need to get at 50 points
each assurer can give you up to 35 points
- you'll need 1 form for each assurer
(or 2 if you want to keep a copy for yourself)
IF YOU WANT TO ASSURE OTHER PEOPLE (VALIDATE THEIR ID'S)
- you must already have 100 points
- take and pass the Assurer's Test on the web
- go to the web site and print out several CAP forms
blanks -> http://www.cacert.org/cap.php
pre-filled-in -> select "US - Assurance Form" on the web
Bottom line: (1) sign up for an account (2) bring forms.
